A GIRL of 19 posed as three different boys so she could fondle other lasses, a court heard.

Gemma Barker dressed in baggy lads' clothes, hoodies and hats for dates with two girls aged 15 and 16.

Both knew her well but were fooled by her disguises, the fake Facebook profiles of boys she had posted to attract them and her acting like a lad.

The dates, which took place over six months, "involved kissing, cuddling and groping," Guildford Crown Court heard.

Barker was even introduced to the parents of one of the girls — but they were also duped even though they had met her before.

The teenager — whose deception echoes 1999 movie Boys Don't Cry — was eventually rumbled when the girls suspected they were dating a "boy" with multiple identities.

Barker, who describes herself as an "actress" and has posted an online picture of her with Hollyoaks star Kieron Richardson, was arrested by cops as a lad.

But she was unmasked as her clothes were removed in a police cell search. Both victims were astounded to discover they had been dating a girl.

Prosecutor Ruby Selva said: "She disguised herself as various 16-year-old boys for the sole purpose of having sexual relationships with her victims.

"Had either realised they would never have consented to what happened."

Barker, of Staines, Surrey, gave her male characters email addresses and mobile phone numbers. And she became so engulfed by her fake world she claimed one of her alter egos assaulted her in a ploy to con money from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board.

Barker, now 20, admitted sexual assault and fraud. She was bailed pending psychological reports — and faces up to two years in jail when sentenced.

Judge Peter Moss said Barker could be described as "mad and dangerous to know".

He added: "It has got a very mean and manipulative streak to it. The girls she preyed on are much younger than her." Chetna Patel, defending, said Barker's deceptions began after the victims told her what their ideal boys would be like.

She created characters in that image to please the girls and hang on to their friendship, it was claimed.

Ms Patel added Barker, who hid her face as she arrived home last night, suffered from a social disorder and was "rather a lonely person".
